Intro

The Citadel is the fourth map in the Demons of the Past's campaign, and again it's another place reused from previous SpellForce 2 games.

Most places on this map remain the same as before with some minor changes, like how to get to some areas.

Most enemies are the same, like the infinite spawn of Demons wandering everywhere but there are also some unique adversaries that you might have to face in battle.

⚠ This map has one broken Achievement.
If you're playing for that, read how to fix it before entering the map.

Also, If you're playing for the Achievements, go to Menu »» Options »» And set the Difficulty Level to Very Difficult.
Completing this map on Very Difficult, will grant you an achievement.

Now, here it is the map, with the important locations to remember when playing it:

Trivia

---

There are 2 Portals on this map but they are mostly for decoration/immersion purposes. One it's required to be interacted with in order to proceed in the game, the other one is out of reach.

At some places on this map, you will find Filigree Metal Pieces, and a Clock Generator too. These are leftovers from the Dragon Storm add-on and not really a part of this expansion.

Quests

---

On this map there are 4 factions of the Pact compiting between themselves to achieve their own objectives.

The quests they give are basically the same, and it's up to the player to decide which faction to support. One faction must be helped until the end to progress the game, and it doesn't matter which is the chosen. Their quests will be basically the same.

• Access the Library

  Find a way to access the library of the Shapers

  • Ereon couldn't say much, but what he said was enough to show you a way.
